Women For Decency Is Now Betrayal Trauma Recovery

Our Current Focus

Because other organizations have formed that help women protect their children and communities, we now focus on helping the women who are deeply victims of their husband’s lies, emotional abuse, and infidelity.

Betrayal Trauma Recovery leads women to protect their homes from the harms of abuse, including lying, manipulation, and pornography use. We believe that any effort to heal the world without first healing ourselves and our homes only prolongs our pain and does not stop the abuse. We have found through painful personal experience that leading the charge against pornography without stopping the abuse intensifies the chaos.
